Emulator does not run

Orb version

v4.1.0

What happened

Emulator does not seem to be running.
My circleci config:

version: 2.1
orbs:
  rn: react-native-community/react-native@4.1.0
jobs:
  detox_test:
    environment:
      CACHE_VERSION: 2
    executor:
      name: rn/linux_android
    steps:
      - checkout
      - rn/yarn_install
      - run:
          command: yarn jetify
      - rn/android_emulator_start
      - rn/detox_test:
          configuration: android.emu.debug
      - persist_to_workspace:
          paths: .
          root: .

workflows:
  test:
    jobs:
      - detox_test

Getting the following output:

#!/bin/bash -eo pipefail

👋 Can you shared the output from the "Setup build environment" step of your job logs. It should be the first one.

So I realize one of my mistakes is running on executor: rn/linux_android.
I've changed that to macos.

Now my Spin Up Environment states:

Build-agent version 1.0.30752-d583efc6 (2020-04-20T11:21:32+0000)
Creating a dedicated VM with xcode:11.0.0 image

  provisioning: .
VM 'default-f3204cf5-02d5-4ef8-b285-210c2b58fb3a' has been created
Initializing agent

And my error has changed to

#!/bin/bash -e
yes | sdkmanager "platform-tools" "tools" >/dev/null
yes | sdkmanager "platforms;android-28" "system-images;android-28;google_apis;x86" >/dev/null
yes | sdkmanager "emulator" --channel=3 >/dev/null
yes | sdkmanager "build-tools;28.0.3" >/dev/null
yes | sdkmanager --licenses >/dev/null
yes | sdkmanager --list


Exited with code exit status 1

My config.yml looks like:

version: 2.1
orbs:
  rn: react-native-community/react-native@4.1.0
jobs:
  detox_test:
    environment:
      CACHE_VERSION: 2
    executor:
      name: rn/macos
    steps:
      - checkout
      - rn/setup_macos_executor
      - rn/yarn_install
      - run:
          command: yarn jetify
      - rn/android_emulator_start
      - rn/detox_test:
          configuration: android.emu.debug

Need to debug this a little more, but I think that I know what is the problem. I splitted this step in several steps and removed the >/dev/null - the error I get is:

ERROR: JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory: /Library/Java/Home

This doesn't seem to be the correct path for JAVA_HOME. I think that it should be /usr/libexec/java_home

In the past I had an override to the macos_executor command and I didn't have JAVA_HOME there and it used to work fine. I'll see if /usr/libexec/java_home fixes it for me and create a pull request with a fix.

[compojoom]

Setting it to /usr/libexec/java_home didn't help. What helps in my case is removing JAVA_HOME all together. I don't remember why I had to override the macos_executor command, but it seems that the JAVA_HOME was the only difference. Anyone else having this problem?
@matt-oakes any ideas?

hi guys, please check #60 and #61 - it might fix these. Tested in react-native-datetimepicker/datetimepicker#155

edit:

huh that's interesting maybe I can try that too
